My 10th Gallon??
Would RecommendThis is the best way to protect any indoor-use wood project. Low VO2s, Dries fast (30 minutes), easy to apply (use a foam brush). I like to water the Gloss types down to 1: Extend the coverage and 2: Thin it out for easier application. I've been using this stuff for years and the finish still looks great 8+ years later. It's not quite as strong as a polyurethane, but for most projects the Polyacrylic is plenty strong/ scratch resistant.

Made it look brand new
Would RecommendWorks great, had to refinish my kitchen table because it had pealed away so I applied 3 coats and it looked brand new. Just make sure you use a natural brush , table was 55 years old

I like it
Would RecommendGoes on easily. It’s thin, so it drips a lot. It has a short dry time which allows the project to go more quickly. Two coats has been sufficient for my application. It’s not supposed to yellow like oil based polyurethanes. Clean up is easy.

Two Coats---Make sure to sand and use tackcloth
Would RecommendEasy to apply but didn't stretch as much as I would've liked.

Good but not great.
This finish was easy to use and dried quickly. I was not entirely happy with the smoothness of the finish though.
